Strictly incoherent operations for one-qubit systems
Abstract
Strictly incoherent operations (SIO) proposed in [Phys. Rev. Lett. 116, 120404 (2016)] are promising to be a good candidate of free operations in the resource theory of quantum coherence, setting against the central role of local operations and classical communication in the resource theory of quantum entanglement. An important open problem is an efficient description for strictly incoherent operations in physical region. Such a description plays key role for axiomatic study of resource theory of quantum coherence. We are aimed to give a structural characterization of bistochastic SIOs in terms of Pauli operators and the Phase operator for one-qubit systems. Some applications of our results are also sketched in reconstructing quantum thermal averages via a quantum computer and in coherence manipulation.
